The Hermit
Tarot Card of the Week: Aug 8-Aug 14, 2016The Journey of Solitude:
This week, you might decide to become the Hermit and take the journey of solitude to figure something out, or maybe you need time away from your daily routines, or it’s possible you need time away from other people.
The Hermit (the hero) wants to be alone and does not want his peace disrupted. His mind is restless and he needs quiet time, or needs to find what he has overlooked.
He is gathering information, analyzing and searching for answers.
The Hermit will hide for days, weeks or months, returning when he is ready to solve his crisis!
The Hero’s Journey: The Hermit suggests that you need to withdraw from a situation to figure something out. You probably need to meditate and connect with your inner-light.
Through your meditative journey, you will connect to the light of wisdom or resolve an existing problem.

The Hermit
This week’s card is The Hermit from the Art Through the Eyes of the Soul Oracle, by Cheryl Yambrach Rose. This is a stunning deck containing the artists empowered oil paintings based on sacred sites and their mythology.
Key statements for this card are: Develop the gifts you have been given. Speak Your truth. Share your wisdom with others. Shine your light.
Depicted on this card is Mount Shasta, the sacred mountain in North Carolina. This dormant volcano is a vortex — a portal to higher dimensions of consciousness.
It is said that this area of mountain range was once part of Atlantis and Lemuria where a highly advanced society lived. Mount Shasta holds the position as the root or base chakra of the world.
Poet Godfre Ray King wrote of Shasta as this: Shasta! O Mount Shasta! What Secrets do you hide, What dwells within that Heart of Yours, What Light does There abide?
The Hermit stands on her narrow path of initiation. She holds up the Lamp of truth to guide those below in the darkness.

Tarot Card of the Week: Sept 14, 2015 – Sept 20, 2015
The Hermit
This week’s card is the Hermit from the beautiful Nicoletta Ceccoli Tarot. The Hermit card refers to the yearning for wisdom and knowledge that so many of us possess but so few of us take the time to nurture and develop.
You may be feeling the need to retreat from others in order to clear your head and recharge your batteries. Or you may be so distracted by the noise and interferences around you that you just want to escape.
The Hermit card responds to these urges by encouraging you to turn inward, to pause and reflect, and to seek your own inner light. It speaks of gaining insight and wisdom through solitude and introspection.
The central figure in this card is a woman dressed in a red-and-white tunic which transforms into a circular spiral formation behind her. She paces around the edge of another circle — this one a pattern painted onto the floor. Along the outer perimeter of the same circle stands her mirror image, in miniature version.
Together they wind their way around the circle, each with the light of a candle to guide their way. The candles provide illumination of a different sort, although they may not even need them: they seem to know the steps by heart. The circular theme is repeated in the shape of the room itself.
